[Zoythrus]

awesome! so, hows the anim coming?

[Hagekura]

Making animation for the samurai won't take long time.
I've already assigned armature on the model and made idling animation(It is what you saw in the screen shots).
Now only I have to do left is making walking,charging,attacking,death animations.It'll be finished in a day.

Looks awesome, as always.    Can't wait for your next release. Hmm...are you thinking of making the monk next?

[Hagekura]

thx. yeah,I'm going to make the temple in the next and then next I'll make a priest and monk.

[james876]

It looks good, but the lack of an air combat units, can add air combat units?

[Hagekura]

Hi.as long as this mod is based on historical,it's hard to add air units in the faction.
but maybe in future,If I thought making more fantasic faction,I might add air units like Tengu.

[Hagekura]

Certainly.

Look great, whats that on the roof?

Thank you sir.
The antenna on the top of the roof is called Sourin.
Buddha's bone is in the Sourin's upper sphere.
Nine rings surrounds the center pole represents The Five Dhyani Buddhas and The Four Bodhisattvas.

The link doesn't work for me.  But from what I hear, it is pretty creative.

[Hagekura]

eww, is that like, a real bone? that's disgusting.....

hehe,I heard that a dead body is lying on the base of the St. Peter's Basilica,both buddhist and christian did a disgusting thing alike.
though I dunno the bone in the pagoda is real or fake(some priests brought holy jewel to japan as a replacement of the real buddha's bone from india and thailand).

In fact,the pagoda is a buddha's tombstone.it's a one of the architectures from the temple building complex.I choose to make the most impressive and symbolic architecture from the temple building complex.(I used Kōfuku-ji's five-storied pagoda as a reference.)

The link doesn't work for me.  But from what I hear, it is pretty creative.

really?it's odd.seems the link is still active.anyway thank you.
but true creativeness most be returned to who built the pagoda in centuries ago.

[ultifd]

  a few days ago I was watching a movie and then I saw a Pagoda... looks like the model you made. 
I still think the "bomb" of the Shinobi is too powerful...I forgot to record it but I almost killed the whole base with 16 bombs... lol that's one of my favorite tactic for now...the other one is making Samurai...also titi's.
Anyways here is a video of the end of our game...cause I forgot to record the actual action...

Note: Quality isn't the best because I kinda recorded the video with the wrong settings...but it's still better than before.
I also just found out that I can upload videos that are longer than 15 minutes. Too bad my connection isn't really fast...
